On Monday, the Supreme Court granted the victim’s parents the liberty to approach the Calcutta High Court, where their plea is already filed.
New Delhi: The father of the victim in the RG Kar Medical College rape and murder case has voiced concerns about the ongoing investigation. He has alleged that multiple individuals are involved in both the crime and the tampering of crucial evidence.
Speaking to ANI, the victim’s father revealed that his family has filed a petition in the High Court, submitting 54 questions in an effort to secure justice for his daughter.
“We have filed a case in the HC and submitted 54 questions. It is with the court to bring us those answers so that my daughter gets justice. Many men are involved in my daughter’s rape and murder. And there are many hands involved in evidence tampering. West Bengal CM is leading the process of evidence tampering. Police had brought dog squads for investigation, but we have received no report of that so far. We have faith in the courts and the courts are working fairly, as per our wishes,” the victim’s father said.
The father further accused the Chief Minister of West Bengal of playing a leading role in the tampering of evidence. He also expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of updates regarding the police’s investigative efforts, including the use of dog squads. Despite this, he emphasized his trust in the judicial process and expressed hope that the courts would deliver justice.
